when the flowers wither

******** *Her memory* CEO chamber "why are you here??? is there anything you want to say.. you never entered my chamber before ,Laura "he was still going through his files without sparing her a sight."I want to say something papa....i think you are busy I'll come again later "she was about to leave after saying that."Thats OK say whatever you want to am all ears, anyway today is your last day here it's better to listen to my daughter" closing the files ....." what do you want?? "he was staring at her and sat down to her level "you don't want to go to your mother.... you want to stay with me "..."Don't come to me again I don't want to come here again and I don't want to stay with mamma "she said that with sharp eyes full of hatred. ********* Phone ringing ..."Hey Laura where are you, I'm in the auditorium already .... don't say you don't remember "..........yawn "Oh no ....I'm really sorry I can't attain todays presentation I have high fever I literally can't even feel my legs can you please make it up for me just explain whatever I thought you before " "but..... OK I'll do that you take some rest and get well soon leader " "okok all the best "hung up yawn "oh God I totally forgot about the presentation.... is it today!!?".... Anyway I'm not going anywhere today cause tomorrow is his birthday I want to surprise him , it's not like he will get surprised he will just give me a faint smile and then say thank you and he may get back to sleep. But this birthday it's special I'm going to prepare a buitiful cake for him and surprise him with that. ******* *Her memory After declining to stay with my father and mother after thier divorce, my mom bought me here to leave with her friends family where I met him, it was my birthday l was 12 that year but my parents were to busy to remember my birthday sometimes I used get birthday wishes on wrong day from my mom but my father he never wished me , for him I'm just a burden cause my existence irritate his new wife.My mom is just a business minded women who never spared any time to her family and her own daughter..... but she took me with her just to leave me with the strangers. "oh dear.....you look similar to your mother especially your blue eyes "I heard a gentle voice with a beautiful smile and looked sweet unlike my mother who is always with a straight face saying ntng but to sit straight and not to talk too much .....oh she is the one who my mother mentioned before in the car I'm going to live here from today, she is my mothers friend, Jane hart and the person standing beside her is Mr hart with a faint smile he looked totally different from my heartless father who just left me and my mom. "Hi aunty Jane, nice to meet you, I'll be under your care from today "that's what my mom told me to say while leaving me here when she ask me something. "oh my you are so sweet your nanny told me that today is your birthday, I know how busy your mom is but she told me to prepare something special to make you happy so I prepared chocolate cake is it of your liking "she asked me with a bright smile. I know she was just saying this to make me happy, my mom never remembered my birthday and she didn't wished me today as usual."Yes aunty, I love chocolate cake "finally I smiled genuinely to her, she looked at me and grabbed my hands and told me "I wish I had a baby girl like you, you are so cute" sigh .... "oh Mr hart say hi to Laura ".....he smiled at me and said hii "oh I forgot to introduce you to someone...... *Alan come down I want you to meet something cute *" she called somebody literally she screamed .So I met him , a boy ,who is of same age of mine came down the stairs straight towards me with no excitement to meet somebody ,he was good looking as his parents , wearing a black T shirt and a track pant. He said "hii , I'm Alan ". " Oh Hi , Laura katz" And that's all he just walked back to his room " Thats my son don't mind him, he is like that he likes robots but he himself turned into one haha, let's have cake "she smiled saying that *end of memory* ************ *sigh* I have to take shower first to prepare chocolate cake of his liking. #### "why the hell it's so hard to make just a cake... I already wasted loads of ingredients and I spent my whole pocket money to buy them..... Jesus " after sometime "oh no it's already 11.50 I have to hurry up " Entering the room in hurry with a cake The room is empty???!!!!!!! "what the hell he is not there in his room at this time" entering Alan's study room he is not even here....does he have any assignment tomorrow is he staying in lab today...... I don't think so tomorrow is Sunday we usually submit assignment on Saturday Down In the main hall "Happy birthday" I heard something down in the main hall so I just left the cake in his room and rushed down and stopped, it was her, Amber ,the roomered girlfriend of Alan. she looked perfect like a frictional ice princess with no crown , wareing blue frock with a pretty smile and buitiful face and with hour glass body , unlike me who only wares Casual everywhere with no makeup on, no boy will spare a glance at me so he have crush on her!!!!!!!! miss perfect of our collage everybody have crush in her cause she is pretty, rich, at the same time gentle and brilliant .....she never spoke casually with others but Alan was exception and she talks to me only because of alan but she never looked at him with love she just wants to be friend with him cause he is the topper of university. She was singing birthday song with a buitiful birthday cake and Alan seemed happy he looked bright.... he was smiling .....he never smiled at me like that ...i remember he always looked at me with no expression he smiled at me occasionally like just a few times after I entered his house. "How come you are here at this time I didn't expected this "he embraced her he was still smiling "I just came here to surprise you, I prepared this cake by myself have a bite and say how Is it before that blow this candle and make a wish "she said with excitement He just did what she said and told her that the cake tasted so good but wait a minute isn't it a strawberry cake he told me that he hate strawberry cakes so much its aroma itself makes him puke what's with him today is it because she is the one who gave him that. "I also came here to say congrats cause your project on manipulators got greater support from authority and there is high hope that your modle will be on shortlist.....and this cake is a reward for your hard work for our team " she said that while taking a bite of a cake "Is nobody home it seems quiet " "yess mygrandpa is in bad health so my parents went there to look after him.....oh no no no Laura is in her room " he said without even looking away "oh I think she don't remember today is your birthday " "might be" it seems like he was not interested in talking about me in front of amber "Hey Laura.... you are here how come you don't remember your best friends birthday " she said with a sweet mocking voice "oh sorry I forgot, happy birthday Alan" I don't know why I said that anyway no one cares even if I said I prepared something it also makes me look weird in front of them cause I never done these shits before....yes I never prepared any surprises before I only used to wish him in the morning if I bring my cake in front of them they may suspect me. I can't stand the site of this shining couple anymore I want a break I wasted my entire day making stupid cake. "you guys carry on I'm kind of sleepy I'm off... good nyt "I said that with a gentle voice and left with a smile without waiting for their response but I can still hear them talking. "hey Alan don't you have a demo scketes of your modle I want to see it " "oh it's in my study let's go there" "oh ok" she is going to study room with him they may have some sweet time together I just want to........ wait they are going to study room oh no I left the cake there what if they see that "aaaaahhhhh it's embarrassing ...oh no they are comming "
